The illness of the sixth lady of Chengguofu is really peculiar, every night in the middle of the night, it is like being beaten by a ghost, the scars on her body are not light, they are not serious, although they do not hurt the muscles and bones, but since the attack, one after another, almost no better. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Mrs. Ai's Tojian came forward and asked Mrs. Huining to invite all the imperial doctors in the palace to come out and consult with the famous doctors in the capital a few times, and they all felt that they had committed evil and were beaten by ghosts with sharp weapons, neither need to detoxify, nor need internal adjustment, but there was something to beat Zheng Qianjing at night, and everyone saw that there was no one with any weapon to beat people.

Even the Taoist priest invited several times, opened the altar to practice, pasted talisman paper all over her body, wore red clothes, burned paper people who paid off life debts, exorcised ghosts and subdued demons, all means were used, and Miss Six's illness just couldn't get rid of it.

Zheng Qianjing has been in the capital for more than half a year, and she originally wanted to see Mrs. Huining, in such a situation, how to get to Huining Mansion?

Since Ying Rong'er died, Xia Zhikang's mood was depressed, Xia Zhongzheng often went out of the palace to take him out to have fun, and found all the stunning beauties in the world for him, but Xia Zhikang made a mistake in his bones - infatuation. Half a year later, a son of a jade tree in the wind was unexpectedly gone, and he looked like a dead man who was boring.

With Zheng Qianjing's medicine, Mrs. Huining's skin gradually improved, and she returned to her former charming appearance, but her son's situation made her anxious and restless.

"It's a pity that the six girls of Chengguo Mansion are stunningly beautiful, otherwise, when Kang'er sees her, she will definitely slowly forget Ying Rong'er's short-lived ghost." Ji'an's wife Wen was also worried about this, thinking that as soon as the six girls with miraculous skills arrived in the capital, all problems would be solved, who knew that she herself had attracted evil spirits.

Zeng's leaned softly on the soft couch with a light fragrance, his mood was in a mess, and the charming girl's eyes slanted at Wen's and sighed: "The queen was all puzzled by this matter, and asked me if the six girls of the Zheng family had been to the hurricane cave and attracted the evil spirit inside, or was Ying Rong'er dying early and wanted to find a substitute?" ”

Wen said: "I went back to the small house of Chengguo Mansion in three or two days, and I saw the doctor in the middle of the night, and I also saw the Taoist priest casting spells. There was a Taoist priest who said that the six girls had done something immoral and were punished by God. ”

"Call Yun'er in." Zeng nodded, remembering that Ying Rong'er and himself had made a crime, when she was borrowed to go to Dongping Prefecture last year, Wen sent a group of people to harm Ying Rong'er, but before she could make a move, she herself died in a flood. However, Ying Rong'er's ghost did not come to oppose her.

Gou Ruyun followed Qiaoxin to learn bonsai in the corridor, and was called into the house by Qiaolian.

"Yun'er. After your sixth sister arrived in the capital, the queen was supposed to summon her, but her strange illness has not been good, and the queen is worried, so it is better for you to go back to Chengguo Mansion for a few days, and accompany your sixth sister for a few days to see if you have committed anything that should not be done when you are in the South China Sea. I have some gifts here, and the precious medicinal herbs that the queen sent from the palace, just so you sent them to the sixth girl. It's okay to live for ten days and a half months, the key is to help the six girls find the reason. If there is something that is not done right, you tell her that you don't need to hide it in your heart, the queen likes the rejuvenation / treasure medicine she makes. Zeng raised a pair of beautiful autumn eyes and looked at Gou Ruyun gently.

After Ying Rong'er's death, Zeng's accepted Gou Ruyun as her goddaughter, rewarded her with 3,000 taels of silver, and asked her to send it to her parents, and set up her own portal in Taidong, Gou Ruyun is now even more loyal to Huining Mansion. She is a sensitive-minded person in her bones, and she has been by Zeng's side for nearly a year, and she has already figured out her temperament and characteristics. As soon as I heard this, I immediately understood what she meant, and I didn't say much, but said: "Thank you for your mother's compassion." The daughter must accompany the sixth sister for a few days. ”

"I heard that your sixth sister treated you well in the past. I've got some things for you here, they're all great curiosities, and you can pick a few of them as your own gifts, and don't take away Yun'er and your cousin's share. Zeng Shi threw a look at Qiaolian.

Qiao Lian took out a delicate dark purple sunwood incense from the kang, and a small red palace treasure chest with cloud carvings.

Gou Ruyun looked at the mud on his hands, and said with a light smile: "Trouble Sister Lian to help me send it to the house." ”

Wen watched the two of them go out, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a smile, this Qiaolian is the most popular real power girl in Huining Mansion, and now in front of Ruyun, she has to be a master. The road like a cloud is still going smoothly in front of you.

Gou Ruyun went back to the room to wash more, chose a good gift, and immediately took his two girls, Qiu Tong and Qiu Ju, to Chengguo's house.

As soon as I left Xing'an Courtyard and passed through the peony forest outside Jinglan Courtyard, I saw Xia Zhikang's emaciated figure walking gently in front.

Qiu Tong is one and a half years older than Gou Ruyun, it turned out to be the little girl who did the chores around Zeng's side, Qiu Ju was the same year as the master, and it turned out to be the rough little girl next to Hou Ye. The two of them were a little disappointed, and the identity of the main owner was different after graduation, Zeng's was very good at being a person, and after the two of them were set out, they were promoted from third-class girls to second-class in advance, and according to the rules, they could only be promoted to the second class when they were fifteen years old. Therefore, the two followed Gou Ruyun willingly, and they didn't feel wronged.

Gou Ruyun learned a lot of Zeng's methods, knew that people's hearts were flesh and blood, and were very generous to them, and from time to time they gave them the good things that Zeng's rewarded her, and only a few months, the two girls were loyal to her.

Seeing that the son of the world was in front, Qiu Tong glanced at it like a cloud. Ruyun raised a hand lightly, slowed down, and walked behind very slowly.

Qiu Ju smiled, obviously Miss Ruyun didn't want to provoke the prince at this time, and Qiu Tong would have a look, don't look at the master's young age, but the city government is getting deeper and deeper, so Mrs. will accept her as a confidant and righteous daughter.

Xia Zhilin was in front, and inadvertently turned his head, and when he saw them, he didn't make a sound, but just walked out with a little servant and the son.

Xia Zhiren came out of the courtyard with two miscellaneous envoys, and when he saw them, he hurriedly saluted: "Miss Ruyun, is this going out?" ”

"Madame asked me to go back to Chengguo Mansion to see my sisters." Gou Ruyun nodded politely with him, without the frame of the righteous daughter of Houmen, her gentle and polite words, and her expression did not lose her identity.

Xia Zhiren nodded and said, "It doesn't prevent Miss Ruyun from going out to do errands." ”

"You didn't go out with the son? On such a hot day, it was noon at this time, and Brother Zhilin did not hold an umbrella for the son. Qiu Tong hugged the two boxes, and his heavy forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

Xia Zhiren smiled and didn't answer her words, but said, "I'll help you send things outside." ”

"I'm sorry for you." Qiu Tong unceremoniously handed him the two boxes.

Xia Zhiren said to the two miscellaneous envoys: "You go to the warehouse to get your things, and then do the things in the yard first." ”

"Doesn't it get in your way?" Gou Ruyundao.

"Xia Zhilin is running with Shizi outside, I only take care of the housework in the yard, it's hot, there are more mosquitoes in the yard recently, the incense in the house is running out, and the silk brocade screen in Shiziye's study is broken, I have to replace it with a new one." Xia Zhiren hugged the box and walked forward as he spoke.

Qiu Tong said: "I don't know what's going on this year, it seems that mosquitoes are particularly powerful, and our small building is also a little powerful, sometimes I use too much incense, and I feel uncomfortable." ”

Gou Ruyun asked softly, "The incense is used heavily for medicinal purposes, will the prince of the world not be able to stand it." ”

Xia Zhiren said: "There are screens in his house, but there are medicinal fragrances everywhere outside, and everyone is a little bored with smelling them every day. Sometimes the prince will also frown. ”

Ahead, Xia Zhikang went out of the mansion, saw a small sedan car parked behind his carriage, couldn't help but look back, saw Gou Ruyun, frowned in disgust, and got into the carriage neatly.

Xia Zhilin glanced back at Gou Ruyun and them, followed them into the carriage, and the carriage walked slowly.

Xia Zhilin looked out the car window and whispered to Shizi, "Miss Ruyun is going out to visit relatives." After Gou Ruyun was accepted as a righteous daughter by Mrs. Hou, Xia Zhilin's opinion of her changed greatly, in his opinion, in the future, Gou Ruyun will at least become a good concubine of the prince, this is the person selected by Mrs. Hou, and she will definitely become an important steward in the house in the future.

Xia Zhikang looked at the gate and sneered, "It's not like I'm going to Chengguo Mansion to visit her ugly sisters." ”

"Lord Shizi. I see that this Gou Ruyun is tender and has a well-behaved personality, but the girl that Mrs. likes very much, Mrs. is sometimes upset, can there be a caring girl who says it is not good to talk? This is helping you to do your filial piety. Xia Zhilin said flatteringly.

Xia Zhikang didn't buy this account, "Phew." Don't have a daughter at home? Do you have to take a foreign surname? ”

"Those daughters are all concubines."

"If you are out of the house, you will not be related? The mother is too eccentric, and her arms are turned outward! ”

"Why are you dissatisfied with Madame?"

"I think it was after this little demon girl came to the house that made my house unrestful and killed my Rong'er!"

Xia Zhilin saw that he was angry, and no longer lobbied, but just looked behind him, only to see Gou Ruyun taking Qiu Tong on the sedan chair, four sturdy women carrying the sedan chair, carrying the elegant sedan chair of cyan silk to the Chengguo Mansion on West Second Street.

"The prince guessed accurately, they went to Chengguo Mansion."

"Haha, I heard that the sixth young lady has a strange disease, and the face of a fairy is unsightly, and it has been half a year since she arrived in Liangcheng, and she hasn't even seen my mother's face."

Xia Zhikang felt an inexplicable joy and excitement.

Xia Zhilin put his head in, feeling that the prince really fell into Ying Rong'er's love network and couldn't climb out, so he had to think of a way to do this, and shouted softly to Xia Zhiqing, "Hurry up a little faster, go to Cuizhuyuan on the outer street." ”

On Gou Ruyun's side, Qiu Tong also watched the carriage of the prince from a distance and drove towards the cross street.

"Miss Ruyun. When will the prince get better in this situation? Qiu Tong has always been worried that the prince who is used to seeing all kinds of beauties will not accept Gou Ruyun in the end.

"Over time, you will slowly forget about the dead." Gou Ruyun was very indifferent.

The sedan chair soon arrived at Chengguo Mansion, and Gou Ruyun sent the sedan chair bearer back to Huining Mansion first.

After Gou Ruyun entered Huining Mansion last year, this was the first time he came back alone, and he came back twice in the middle, both of which followed Mrs. Ji'an all the way.

Seeing her come back suddenly, a mother-in-law in front of the door wanted to send someone to report the news first, but she stopped her: "My stepmother asked me to come back and have a look, don't make a noise, I'll just go to the inner courtyard by myself." ”

I haven't seen this for half a year, Miss Ruyun not only looks more smart, but her gestures are all with the natural lady's grace of a wealthy lady, and there is no trace of arrogance. The subordinates respectfully stepped aside, watched her dress drag to the ground, and went up the corridor unhappily, with a faint fragrance in the air.

Ai's mother and daughter and the six girls were enjoying the shade in the breezy pavilion in the inner courtyard.

"Miss Ruyun is back." Qingxia and Xiao Yahuan had just come out of the kitchen, carrying a few bowls of cold white fungus to the pavilion, and when they saw Gou Ruyun from a distance, they reported to the pavilion loudly.

Ai didn't expect her to come back suddenly, and they all stood up.

"Second cousin. Fifth sister, sixth sister. Gou Ruyun carried her skirt and rushed to the small pavilion quickly, seeing the sixth sister wearing a veil, she cried as soon as she met, "Sixth sister, I look forward to you coming over to meet you every day in Huining Mansion, what kind of illness are you, why haven't you been well for so long?" ”

"It's not a big deal. It's just inconvenient to meet people. Zheng Qianjing's mood has become more and more irritable recently, she has not seen Gou Ruyun for a long time, this time she came to Beijing mainly for her, and she felt relieved to see that she had been reborn, and pulled her to look up and down for a while, and smiled softly: "You are a good tool." If I were a man, I would love you as a little beauty. ”

"The sixth sister is the phoenix among people. My sister is humble, but it is just the blessing of the Chengguo Mansion, and when she entered the Huining Mansion, she was just a little loved by Mrs. Huining. Gou Ruyun said while crying.

"Oops. All good boys. It's a good thing that you rarely see each other, don't cry, it makes me want to cry. Ai said with a smile, looking at the six girls, tears shining in her eyes.

Zheng Qianjing saw Gou Ruyun, her temperament calmed down a lot, and she sighed, "Hey." It's all my fault. The second aunt said very well, it is rare for our sisters to meet, don't let the disappointment spoil the fun. ”

Qingxia put the white fungus porridge on the table, Ai Shi wiped the corners of her eyes, and saw that the six girls were in a good mood because of Gou Ruyun's arrival, and she also cheered up and arranged, "A few daughters, first use some white fungus porridge to clear the summer." ”

"Come, sit down." Zheng Qianjing took Gou Ruyun's hand and sat down with her, this affection and love were the same as her own sister. The more she was like this, the more sad Gou Ruyun became when she saw her like this, and she lay on the table and cried, "Why don't you have long eyes." How could such a good person as my sixth sister suffer such a sin? If she can, Yun'er is willing to take the place of the sixth sister to get sick. ”

"Sixth Sister didn't hurt you in vain, she didn't help you in vain." Yun'er said with emotion on the side.

"I remember the great kindness of everyone in Chengguo Mansion to me." Gou Ruyun is sincere, and she is sincerely worried that the sixth girl will not be able to get better, she is the pillar of Chengguofu.

"Don't talk about that. You put me in a much better mood. Zheng Qianjing resumed her usual old style, took out a silk handkerchief to wipe her tears in person, and teased her with a smile, "Look at your crying, make your flower and moon appearance more pitiful." Why am I not a man? ”

It made everyone laugh.

"Why did you suddenly come alone?" Yun'er glanced at Qiu Tong and Qiu Ju and put the two delicate boxes on the stone chair behind them, and asked with concern.

"In the morning, Qiaoxin and I were working on flowers. Mrs. Ji'an and her stepmother were talking in the house, and suddenly called me in, saying that the sixth sister had been sick for so long, and that she must not be in a good mood, and that we had not seen each other for a long time, so she asked me to come back to accompany the sixth sister for a few days. Gou Ruyun flashed with a pair of charming eyes, lining her immature appearance, and even more pretty.

Hearing Qingxia's previous voice, Youyahuan quickly brought a few bowls of white fungus.

Ai Shi called a little girl to take Qiu Tong and Qiu Ju to the guest room, leaving only Hongzhu and Qingxia down.

"Let's talk while we eat." Eth sat down and commanded the children.

"Hey. Mrs. Ji'an said it two days ago, and the queen didn't want to see the sixth sister anymore. The sixth sister doesn't want to visit the palace now. Yun'er said as she ate.

"It's important to heal now." Ai's Road.

Gou Ruyun's eyes were still wet, and she looked at everyone pitifully, "Sixth Sister is proficient in medical skills, is there really no way at all?" ”

The sixth girl took off her veil, rolled up her sleeves again, and gritted her teeth and said, "Look." What kind of incurable disease is this? It's just an ordinary trauma. It happened to be here, and it suddenly came in the middle of the night. ”

The snow-white and tender arms were covered with scars, and the face was layered with new and old wounds.

Gou Ruyun was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth, "Oh my God." When I heard Mrs. Gian and my stepmother speak, I couldn't imagine it. I saw it in person today, and I couldn't imagine it. What the hell is going on? Isn't Ying Rong'er haunted? ”

Yun'er shook her head and whispered, "All the powerful mages have been invited." They all said that there was no evil spirit, and that the sixth sister was punished by heaven. After that, he glanced at the sixth sister, afraid that she would lose her temper again.

Zheng Qianjing was okay at this time, and the fifth sister was not angry when she said this, but smiled bitterly: "This is indeed like heavenly punishment." ”

"My stepmother is very concerned about this. She asked me to ask you, did you accidentally do anything before you got sick, and you didn't notice it yourself? She also said, it doesn't matter what you do wrong, the queen likes your beauty medicine. Sixth sister, didn't you see what my stepmother looked like when she was sick last year, and then she took your beauty medicine, and now she has returned to her former gorgeous beauty, and her stepfather still loves her as before. In front of them, Gou Ruyun didn't dare to have a little scheming and disguise, and he poured out his heart and lungs, which made people feel at ease.

"What can you do wrong? I went to the South China Sea only to find some medicinal herbs and minerals, and I didn't hurt anyone. That Ying Rong'er fell into the water and died by herself, and she has nothing to do with me. If it's too much, only Hongzhu is often beaten by me, is it..."Zheng Qianjing glanced at Hongzhu out of the corner of her eye.

Hongzhu hurriedly waved her hand, "Miss Six is like a sister to a slave. Every time, it is the slave and maid who do not deserve to be taught a lesson, but it is just a small lesson. ”

Gou Ruyun frowned and fell into thought.

Zheng Qianjing said: "Do you want to go home and have a look?" ”

Gou Ruyun nodded.

"It's better to take advantage of my illness this time, ask your stepmother for a leave, and go back by the way."

"I'll go back and talk to my stepmother."

"Mrs. Huining is really good to you."

Yun'er looked at the two beautiful boxes.

"I forgot to get down to business. One box here is the treasure of the sixth sister given by the queen and her stepmother, and the other box contains a little bit of my heart, you have always given me things, and I have never repaid you. ”

Qingxia and Hongzhu cleaned up the table.

Gou Ruyun carried the two small boxes to the table, and opened the box given by his stepmother first, which contained half a box of high-grade pearls and a royal old ginseng.

"Good stuff. This is the legendary pearl of the South Sea. This ginseng is at least 100 years old...", Yun'er exclaimed.

"Hearing Qiaolian say that this ginseng is a five-hundred-year-old ginseng, the queen took pity on the sixth sister and took out her treasure. The pearl was kept by the stepmother herself for medicinal purposes, she said that gold and silver jewelry is not uncommon to Chengguofu, the sixth sister is proficient in medical skills, give these pearls to you, good things will be given to people who will use it. ”

Gou Ruyun opened another small box, took out a purple gem the size of a cat's eye, and said a little shyly: "Sixth sister treats me like a mountain. When Mrs. Huining recognized me as her daughter-in-law, my father-in-law gave me this rare gem, and I thought it was more suitable for the sixth sister. Saying that, he compared it to her head, and sure enough, the light purple gem matched Zheng Qianjing's somewhat cold and arrogant appearance.

"This is a golden jade rich hairpin, given to the second cousin. This pair of superb jade bracelets was given to the fifth sister. ”

All three are the finest treasures.

Yun'er's eyes straightened when she held the jade bracelet to the sun, "Huining Mansion is comparable to your own life!" ”

Ai Shi fiddled with Baochai and sighed, "I can't pick out one or two things like this." However, you went out less than a year ago, became the righteous daughter of Huining Mansion, and came back alone for the first time, and the gifts you gave were all strange goods. ”

Zheng Qianjing took the gem and thought about it secretly, she had never met Mrs. Huining before, I don't know what her temperament was, but I heard that she was a shrewd, capable, and somewhat virtuous person. She hadn't seen these things since she became home, and it must have been Ying Rong'er who took a lot of them back to her parents' house before. This Mrs. Ning is really good to Gou Ruyun, is it really "not a family that doesn't enter the door"? This is the fate of Gou Ruyun and Huining Mansion...

"I accepted the gift. If there are good things in the future, you can keep them for yourself. Although there is no shortage of food and clothing in Huining Mansion, I have something on my hands, in case there is an emergency situation, and there is nothing to lin, it will be troublesome. Zheng Qianjing accepted the gem and taught him earnestly.

"Your sixth sister is very right. Although the things in Huining Mansion are good, you are still young now, so you have to save something to put away. Ai also accepted the gift.

"It's a little uncomfortable to be blown by the wind. I want to take Yun'er back to the house first. Zheng Qianjing looked at Ai.

"You children go and talk to each other, and I'll have someone bring lunch to your room." Ehrlich nodded in agreement.

"I'm just trying to ask the sixth sister for some knowledge, you used to be the best at curing mosquito incense, the flowers and trees in Huining Mansion are too lush, this year the mosquitoes are particularly fierce, and the incense used in the house smells too heavy."

"It's in our yard too. It may be that the weather this year is a bit abnormal, either heavy rain or violent blazing. ”

Yun'er and Yun'er hugged the six girls left and right and walked towards her house.

The three girls had endless things to say, and they couldn't finish talking from noon to night. At night, the three of them slept on a kang, and because it was close to the time when the six girls became ill, the three of them quieted down.

Yun'er and Yun'er were lying on their sides on either side of the six girls, both looking at her nervously.

"Hey. This damn illness not only made me covered in injuries, but also caused me to sleep badly at night, and often made up for sleep during the day, causing me to be distracted all day long, and I was embarrassed to do things. Zheng Qianjing looked at the carved beams with fine workmanship but simple color.

Gou Ruyun's eyes looked at a familiar scroll on the closet on the side, and an intuition lingered.

"You still think it has something to do with her?" Yun'er jumped off the kang, opened the scroll, revealing a portrait full of holes, hanging on the wall, picked up a knife on the table, stabbed the painting a few times, and was angry, "You are dead, what are you doing?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Zheng Qianjing screamed and rolled on the bed.

"Sixth sister!" Gou Ruyun reacted quickly, and pounced on her, several stinging pains pierced her back, and blood flowed everywhere.

Yun'er was stunned.

"Leave me alone." Zheng Qianjing had several new injuries on her body, and she hugged her arms tightly.

Gou Ruyun reacted quickly, only once, with a way to deal with it, he protected Zheng Qianjing and shouted: "Hongzhu, quickly bring the thick quilt." ”

"So you can block it? How did I never think of it? Yun'er picked up the summer quilt at the head of the bed and spread it over them.

Hongzhu hugged two thick quilts and came in and wrapped the six girls, wrapped them like a zongzi from head to toe.

I saw that the quilt was pricked from time to time and flew up the cloth, and the house was full of dust.

Half an hour later, there was no more dust dancing.

After a while, Yun'er and Yun'er opened the quilt in surprise and released the six girls who were about to suffocate to death.

"Oh my god." The sixth girl felt like she had died once, took a few big breaths, and hugged Gou Ruyun excitedly, "Yun'er really loves me." As he spoke, he glanced at the red beads with deep resentment, "How many loyal words do you say to me on weekdays?" I wouldn't even think of such a simple way. But my sister Yun, at a young age, regardless of her own safety, leaned over to protect each other and get a way to resist. ”

Gou Ruyun didn't expect that she had made such a contribution, and her nervous face relaxed, "Sixth sister, don't be angry." Now we have to think of a way to prevent it in case it happens at any point. ”

"That's not easy, let's hurry home, we have a set of gold silk suits at home. As for the face, you have to get someone to make a hood quickly. Yun'er said excitedly.

"You can only prevent it like this." Zheng Qianjing nodded, "Yun'er, you will go back to Huining Mansion tomorrow to ask for leave for your stepmother, saying that you want to go home to see your parents." Didn't your father come to the capital to take the exam this year because he was sick? ”

Gou Ruyun nodded, "I'll go back to Huining Mansion tomorrow, and when I take a leave of absence from my stepmother, give Qiaolian your recipe for making incense, I'll pack up my things and come over, and then we'll go on the road immediately." ”

"I'm going to send someone to make the hood overnight. Then let someone find you a piece of armor to hold on to first. Yun'er took out a rope ruler and measured the size of the sixth sister's head.

"Good. If you can't get on the road tomorrow, try to get on the road the day after tomorrow. Zheng Qianjing is down-to-earth, as long as Gou Ruyun is by her side, all problems will be solved smoothly, her fate in her previous life is very smooth, and some things are indeed related to her.

The three girls discussed the itinerary of important matters, Yun'er went out to arrange things and reported the situation to her mother, Zheng Qianjing personally gave medicine to the injury on Gou Ruyun's back, and when it was ugly, the three of them lay down next to each other and rested.
